He never feared a cannon ball, till at Trafalgar he did fall,

No flinching from the enemy—no action he did shun;

He many powers did defeat, and never was that hero beat,

Neither would he surrender till he had thrashed his daring foes,

Altho’ he lost an eye and wing, he was loyal and true to his king,

This grand conversation on brave Nelson arose.

Trafalgar I will mention, if you will give attention,

It long has been recorded where brave Nelson fell and bled,

The officers around him, all human aid was found,

But were affected to the heart to find that he was dead.
